Un Sedicesimo 76

Maria Toll is a Swedish artist based in Stockholm who works mainly with sculpture, installation and collage.
She is interested in evoking individual associations and memories connected to collective places or ordinary household objects. In addition to her individual studio work, she does art as a duo together with artist Astrid Hjortdal and also does curatorial work.

Since 2018 she runs Galleri Toll, a vitrine in the Ropsten metro station in Stockholm.
The aim is to exhibit young contemporary art for a passing public who are not necessarily there to see art. She also organizes the annual sculpture park Hjorten in Stockholm together with the artist Nikki Fager Myrholm.

Maria holds a bachelor in fine art from Bergen Art Academy in Norway, 2018. For this project she has focused on primary school as a place for often disjointed and random memories. Glimpses of details that for some unfathomable reason have stuck in the subconscious.
